SOUTHERN ROCK

VA - Ramblin' Man, Southern Rock Vol. 01 + Vol. 02 (A Butterboy Compilation) (6 x CDs)

Southern rock is a sub-genre of rock music and a genre of Americana. It developed in the Southern United States from rock and roll, country music, and blues, and is focused generally on electric guitar and vocals. Although the origin of the term Southern rock is unknown, "many people feel that these important contributors to the development of rock and roll have been minimized in rock's history."

The heyday of Southern rock in the 1970s began with the 1973 release of the Allman Brothers Band’s Brothers and Sisters album, with its major hit "Ramblin' Man", and other Southern inflected tunes like "Jessica" and "Pony Boy". This album was a departure from previous Allman Brothers work, which until the death of band leader Duane Allman in late October 1971 had been purely blues rock. Dickey Betts' song "Blue Sky", which had appeared on the 1972 Eat a Peach album, was the one song recorded during the Duane Allman era that could in retrospect be seen as bridge to Southern rock. Betts' ascension as band leader following the death of Allman and then Berry Oakley, the band’s original bassist, turned the direction of the band and American pop music in general, toward a more Southern-fried sound.

The Marshall Tucker Band was also known to incorporate jazz instruments such as the flute and saxophone into their jams. Other acts associated with the first wave of true Southern rock were Elvin Bishop, Wet Willie, The Charlie Daniels Band, Little Feat, ZZ Top and Lynyrd Skynyrd. In the early 1970s, another wave of hard rock Southern groups emerged. Their music emphasized boogie rhythms and fast guitar leads with lyrics extolling the values, aspirations - and excesses - of Southern working-class young adults, like the outlaw country movement. The music itself is heavily influenced by the late '60s electric rock music scene.

The 1990s also saw the influence of Southern rock. The Black Crowes, who were from Atlanta, Georgia, blended the sound of bands like Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones with the southern touch of the Allman Brothers Band. Additionally, alternative rock groups like Kings of Leon combine Southern rock with garage rock, alt-country, and blues rock. Several of the original early 1970s hard rock Southern rock groups are still performing today, such as Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Marshall Tucker Band, Molly Hatchet, ZZ Top, and Wet Willie. The members of the Allman Brothers Band decided to stop playing in 2014 and continue with different projects like Government Mule and the Tedeschi Trucks Band. Since about 2017 the Allman Betts Band with sons Devon Allman and Duane Betts of the original Allman Brothers Band members Gregg Allman and Richard C. (Dickey) Betts started touring, thus the baton has been passed to the next generation. (Wikipedia)

Volume 1 and Volume 2 each have 75 great Southern Rock tracks. Enjoy this music style that combines blues jams and boogie licks with lyrics declaring fierce regional pride. Its unpretentious sound is very rewarding. All tracks are chosen for their Southern Rock feel; not all bands are American.

This was previously posted in separate posts for each volume. 

They are now combined in this one post.
